GE "took a $500 million charge in the third quarter to cover warranty costs and repairs on its turbines." "insurance premiums could increase or new coverage limits could be imposed." “There’s a hesitancy among insurers and lenders about these big models that haven’t been tested yet,” Safe and effective!! HaHaHaHa!
Wind power isn't properly scalable like that. In a lot of cases, bigger can mean more efficient. And strictly from a power-generation perspective, this holds true with windmills.
HOWEVER.
Building GIANT windmills (as cool as they are to watch turning) results in huge degradations to the mill as they're put in to use.
And here's the thing: The engineers who designed these things KNEW that from the start. Any engineer worth his salt would know that a fiberglass blade with a tip speed of hundreds of miles per hour would degrade fast.
These giant windmills just more of the "Global-Homo-Enviro-Covid-Mentalism" being thrust on us every day.
There are not many engineers worth their salt nowadays. Just weak minded faggots poorly redesigning already properly designed equipment to show they actually are needed and keep their jobs.
